OTA PUBLICATIONS

This is a combined listing of the publications of the Office of Technology Assessment (OTA) from 1972-1996, archived at Princeton University. Links to that site are provided for downloading the documents in PDF format.

See a selection from this archive of 122 publications on electronic surveillance and related defense and justice technologies.


The OTA Legacy  

The Congressional Office of Technology Assessment closed on September 29, 1995. During its 23-year history, OTA provided Congressional members and committees with objective and authoritative analysis of the complex scientific and technical issues of the late 20th century. It was a leader in practicing and encouraging delivery of public services in innovative and inexpensive ways, including distribution of government documents through electronic publishing. This site honors that legacy by making available in electronic form the complete collection of OTA publications along with additional materials that illuminate the history and impact of the agency.
